Twitter #Weekendeats highlights: Spring has sprung

The Easter holiday put many of our Twitter #Weekendeats chat participants in the mood for spring. In addition to the baked hams, Peeps and Easter basket candy, spring fruits and vegetables seemed to dominate everyone’s holiday tables. Here’s a look at the highlights:

Gerry from the blog FoodnessGracious.com shared a recipe for a beautiful roasted tomato and goat cheese galette, AZgrabaplate.com shared a recipe for asparagus and asiago frittata and theAdirondackChick.com shared a recipe for spicy chipotle roasted butternut squash with cilantro lime quinoa.

Susan Orlins shared 12 recipes for vegetable dishes including a broccoli soup and glazed onions.

The chat got fruity with Jo Stougaard from MyLastBite.com’s blackberry and goat cheese Easter crostinis, Brooks Walker of the blog CakeWalkr.com’s waffles with fresh strawberries and Michelle Jenkin’s lemon pudding with coconut oat crumble from the blog DailyWaffle.com. Prachi Joshi from the blog DeliciouslyDirectionless.com also shared a recipe for a spice cake with fresh apples.

For a refreshing cocktail, Samantha from the blog LittleFerraroKitchen.com shared a recipe for pear and grape sangria, and Beth Lee from the blog Omgyummy.com shared a photo of her chipotle pepper and pineapple margarita.
